G'day all!
It's been an interesting day & a half. Yesterday the Boston Camerata gave a concert at our school. I suspect the only person who will care about that is Ben, but ya never know! Today I went to a lecture by the conductor. He was really cool, and funny, and smart, so it was a good time.
Yesterday Kyla, Katie, Jon, and I went dancing 'cause it was free for girls before 11. I can justify it because I didn't have class 'till 2:30 today. Afterwards we were all in really wierd hyper moods and so we went to Steak & Shake. It was an awesome night. Jon was good at protecting us from the creepy guys that would try to dance with us. If someone started to dance with one of us he'd pretend to be our date. One guy walked by, looked at me, turned to Jon and asked; "is she with you?". He said yes. The guy was like "You're lucky, she's pretty hot." I was part wierded out, part flattered, and mostly just greatful to Jon for protecting me. lol. It was awesome. People sometimes give me funny looks when I tell them i'm going dancing. I guess they just assume that evil deeds go along with going clubbing. The truth is that I just like dancing, and i'm lucky enough to have friends who are the same way. We don't go "get on" guys, or dance with people. We just goof around and have fun! There should be more people like us in the world. haha.
I think i'm going through some kind of transition in my life right now. I'm not quite sure what it is... but a lot of the things that I used to have problems with are not such huge problems anymore... I'm also kinda lonely, but I don't need a boyfriend right now. I can wait for God to tell me who and when now... however long that takes. I suppose my feelings are not quite that simple, but I really don't want to rant about my emotions on a blog... more than I already do. ack. shutting up. hehe.
Well I need a shower 'cause i'm a dirty dirty person... no pun intended. HA!
Catch ya on the flip side!
Seacrest out!
wait... nevermind.
btw..

"Ha! You're gonna burn!!!"... Someone restrain me,
So we were listening to the radio this morning, to a Christian station I must add, and this horrible commercial came on. It was a "Christian" commercial and it was addressing parents with teenagers. It flat out said this: "if your teenager is dressing like a goth or is dying their hair black or other unnatural colors then they are in a cult." I'm sorry I just can't agree with that statement at all. It's completely ridiculous. It is narrow-minded and judgemental. Worse, I think it gives me a bad name as a Christian. Are we just supposed to walk around and avoid people who express themselves this way?? Um, no! I'm not better than anyone and i'm not going to judge them because of their appearance. I know plenty of Christians who dress this way. Many of them live on my floor. Are they in a cult? No. My advice to the people who made this commercial:
Stop living in your little Christian bubble and judging the rest of the world. That has never been your place, and it never will be. There are Christians out there who are actually trying to make a positive impact in this world, and we don't appreciate the reputation you're giving us. There is nothing wrong with dressing this way, and it is an improper correlation to automatically assume someone with these fashion tastes is a cult member. The 2 things are seperate. Get it right.
Sorry, this is the kind of thing that makes me mad. I'm sick of having a reputation that says Christians are snobby judgemenal people who live on their own little island, and this is a perfect example of why we have this reputation. Come on people, can we please just love other people and stop making judgements on them? I'm sorry for being harsh, i'm not trying to say that i'm better than other Christians, i'm just frustrated that this action is hindering me from doing what I want to do in the world. We're all hipocrites in some way.
My floor is arranging a picket of this commercial in front of the station. hehehe. Maybe we'll make the news. This is a message we need to make very clear to the public, or it's never gonna change.

Happy ... uh ... nevermind.
So......
Christy was making fun of my height today, so I thought I would stand in the middle of a large ankle-deep puddle and yell that I was drowning. Good fun, yes.
I have decided that this state is not only hormonal, it's female. It rained most of today and yesterday (it's february??) and now it's windy and trying to snow. I wish it would pick something (like warm or cold) and stick with it. Plus I want to go snowboarding.... My pants are soaked because I walked to and from class in the rain. If it was warmer I would welcome this as an excuse to run around and get wet, but it's too cold right now. Where is this Michigan winter i've been promised? Where is all the horrible cold weather and snow? It's colder in Nebraska right now, therefore I maintain that I am from a harsher state. HA!
Today is Valentines Day/Single's Awareness day. I am compensating for my lack of romance with chocolate and classic rock. Therefore it is still a rock-tastic day. I believe in a thing called love, yessirree, but i'm just gonna wait for it to find me this time.
In other extremely exciting news (for me at least). Mom called me up with good news the other day; I can probably go to England with them!!! I'm sorry i'm really not trying to brag, but this has been my goal for how long? For those of you who don't know, i'll explain... I am more than a little bit of a history freak (and not American history, it's ridiculously boring). I've been studying European history since I went to London and Canturbury in 8th grade... It was kinda wasted on me though 'cause I didn't know anything about the things I was looking at. When I got home, however, I started to study British literature and history. Somewhere in there I became a nerd... So yay!! I finally get to indulge my inner-geekdom (as my history prof would say)!
I put some more pictures up on the flickr site. They are from my dorm floor retreat. One is just a picture of how long my hair is now. In any case... check 'em out!
Right... so... yeah.... that's all for now.
Peace

Personality Quizzes!!!
I was really bored, so I copied Angela and took ALL these tests.... yes I have no life
You Are 24 Years Old |
24 Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax. |
Your EQ is |
50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick! 51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese. 71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely. 91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that. 111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt. 131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin. 150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar. |
Lullabye (goodnight, My Angel)
Billy Joel
(River Of Dreams)
Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
WHen we went sailing on an emerald bay
ANd like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
THe water's dark
And deep inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me
Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart
There will always be a part of me
Someday we'll all be gone
But lullabyes go on and on...
They never die
That's how you
And I
Will be
(River Of Dreams)
Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me

Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say

And deep inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me
Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
